Mama is in Rome and the Pope will be taken on Saturday to Santa Maria Maggiore where he will be buried.
We are thankful that he did so much good during his time as Pope for those less fortunate. A kind man, a gentle man, and we are thankful that he will be remembered as such.
We are thankful for the lovely sunny days in Rome and for fewer tourists than we had imagined, most of whom are staying near the Vatican, not in our neighborhood.
And we are thankful that on May 3, there will be a huge protest against Trump and his lackies in Rome by the Democrats in Europe and it will be held in one of the largest piazzas in Rome. Mama will report.
Thank you for being such good friends. It is a time when good friends are sorely needed.
Merci….
We hope the new Pope will be as kind as Pope Francis.
We hope also and we won’t know anything for a few weeks when the smoke will out black or white…
The Pope was quite a positive force to so many – not just Catholics but the world. Glad your Mama and Papa are enjoying their trip to Rome. We are enjoying sunny days and green leaves and flowering plants and the arrival of Spring to lighten our heavy hearts.
Hugs, Teddy and Pam
Oh, sweet Teddy and mama and papa, we are so glad for your spring leaves and plants and lighter hearts and may we help in any way we can….
And thanks to you and your mama for being such good friends to us, Loulou. What a sweet pic of you.
Merci, Ms Militza. I don’t seem to photograph at all now, haha, but mama does have quite a stash..
All the world’s eyes will on Rome on Saturday…
Oui and we shall watch, too, as this very sad event takes place.
I pray his funeral goes well.
100,000 are expected. It is very quiet here in Rome.
The kitties and I are very glad to be friends with you, your family, and Loulou, too! I’m just sorry we have so much trouble getting around and can’t always be present in comments. In thought though, we are there!
Oh, Ms Leah, we feel exactly the same way and mama is very remiss in commenting in LOTS of places, too. Time seems to chip away at so many things we wish to do.
So much to be thankful for ! We are thankful for you and all the other kitty bloggers too !
Merci, Ms Mary. Wonderful “new” friends through blogging are such a lovely addition to our life.
Beautiful post. I am thankful for kind people in this world like your folks. XO
